A Date with Data: Embracing “Open” Relationships

This article delves into John Snow's pioneering cholera map of 1854, a seminal work in the fields of epidemiology and public health. By employing open data, Snow identified the source of a cholera outbreak in London, revolutionizing our understanding of disease transmission. The piece recounts how Snow's analysis utilized Ordnance Survey data and highlights modern visualizations of his work through tools like CartoDB. This exploration emphasizes the importance of open relationships in data sharing, revealing its potential for social impact and informed decision-making today.
